I've been all over these forums & can't find the 'right forum', so mybe i'll find an answer on the front porch ? 
I have 2 cans of 'cheapie' coffee ; tried mixing them so they would be more flavorful, but not-so-much did it work. Might buy a more spendy brand & mix them, but in meantime, anyone have any ideas on how to make these cheap brands taste better ?
Thanks !
NOTHING LIKE A HOT CUPPA JOE ON A COLD WINTER'S DAY!

There's nothing like sharing a cup of coffee with someone you love!
And there's nothing like sharing someone with a cup of coffee you love!
Oh well, whichever fits!
Good Coffee! It is all in the beans.
Poor pooch is doing his best to get the coffee right! But coffee's not happy 'bout it.
@wilful This is one of the best California coffers available here in Wisconsin! Below is there original shops. Peet's original store in North Berkeley, California. Your Coffee Festival sound like a great time. My wife and I visited her aunt several times (who has since past away) in Upland. We were there in 2009 to visit and celebrate Mary's retirement. We drove on along HYW 1 to visit other relatives along the way to Portland with a side trip to Mt St Helens. Mary with here Aunt Betty on Santa Monica pier
For all you coffee afficianados- here in SoCal - we have a Coffee Fest.
Coffee fest promises a blend of caffeine, cuisine, more

Coffee is not just for mornings.
Rather, the three-day Los Angeles Coffee
Festival, which kicks off today at the Magic
Box @ The Reef in downtown L.A., shows that a cup of Joe has a host of roles to play in modern life.
“We’re reflecting the wholeness of the coffee scene,” said Jeffrey Young, who’s responsible for bringing coffee festivals to London, New
York and now L.A.
Programming at this inaugural event is tailored to coffee geeks, foodies and culture fans.
More than a hot cup
Yes, a big perk of the festival is free, unlimited coffee. But it isn’t the only one.
There are also rich, indulgent, creamy cocktails
in the Coffee Cocktail Bar and Latte Art Live, where latte artists create drinks with milk and espresso.
“That’s going to be extraordinary,” Young said, adding he’s tried it. “It is a skill that can be taught, but I’m probably better at putting on festivals than latte art.”
Later, coffee mixologists take over Latte Art Live to mix up coffee cocktails and freestyle.
“Coffee cocktails are a phenomenal after-hours way of making coffee more exciting and inviting,” Young said.
But festivalgoers can’t thrive on caffeine alone.
And so they’ve invited into The Kitchen for demonstrations, workshops and talks headed up by giants of L.A.’s culinary scene.
L.A. restaurants Triniti, Bluestone Lane, Lately and Pollen will be serving up a festival menu.
Songs and cinema to sip coffee to
In addition to coffee and food components, thefestival incorporates entertainment in the
form of local acts taking the main stage courtesy of the Coffee Music Project, and coffee-inspired films screen in The Movie Room.
There’s also a visual art component. Dubbed the Coffee Art Project, it features original artwork that represents coffee or the coffee shop experience through painting, drawing, photography, film, design, sculpture and conceptual art.
“It’s an exploration of coffee that this festival tries to highlight,” Young said. “We’re exploring this whole world of coffee and taking it to another level.”
The Los Angeles Coffee Festival aims to bridge the gap between coffee and cocktail culture.

Mornin'!!!
Time to get out to vote! My wife is at the polls waiting to check peoples name off her list so they can vote. I picked up a box of donuts and made a pot of coffee for her to take with.
I like coffee, but this is rather extreme.
One big benefit of drinking coffee is positivity....positively!
Good evening everyone!
Good morning, Our Front Porchers! I'm workin' as fast as I can--fixin' up the perfect cup of coffee made "expressoly" just for you!Is that a Target dog?
Yep, wilful, that is the Target dog. I think that big red multi-circle around his left eye kinda gives him away. 
It is coffee time!
Well, as much as I enjoyed watching that cup fill up with that hot, black elixir of the gods, I must show the results of days of downing just a few too many cups......
Drink with caution!
